Tonight, Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin who also didn't sleep in the rolling mill also didn't sleep.

At six o'clock in the evening, Xu Yuanshan told the two of them that the test results were out through the phone of the machine repair factory.

The result was a big surprise to the two of them.

According to Liu Huaimin, the bigger the steam engine, the greater the horsepower.

And he talked about the size and power of the steam engine in the north.

According to his calculations, the steam engine made by Yang Xiaotao can have 10 horsepower.

As for the 15 horsepower mentioned earlier, there is no hope at all.

But the test results given by Xu Yuanshan are thirty horsepower.

It's only a conservative estimate, because the mechanic shop can only measure an approximate one.

This shocked the two, especially Liu Huaimin, who wondered if he had heard it wrong, and after repeatedly confirming that it was thirty horsepower, the two were stunned on the spot.

However, Yang Youning felt that it was still necessary to be more rigorous, so he asked Xu Yuanshan to let the comrades of the machine repair factory work hard again and test it again.

Xu Yuanshan didn't understand what was going on, but after listening to Liu Huaimin, they were very interested, so they went to Ding Xiangjun for help.

So, the people in the mechanic shop started testing again.

Bell bell bell

The voice of the phone on the table rang, and Yang Youning, who was walking below, immediately stepped forward and picked up the phone.

Liu Huaimin next to him also came over.

"Coming out? How much! ”

"Or thirty? Okay, hard work comrades, hard work. ”

"Rest early, good. We'll talk about it tomorrow! ”

Yang Youning had a smile on his face, "It's still thirty, that's right!" ”

nodded affirmatively to Liu Huaimin.

Liu Huaimin also touched his head, "It's weird, it's weird, did you hear it wrong before?" ”

"Whatever that, thirty horsepower, how much can this be for a car?"

Liu Huaimin said unwillingly, "At least twenty." ”

"Twenty, two horsepower more than eighteen, it's okay!"

Liu Huaimin nodded, still a little disbelieving in his heart.

"Tomorrow, let Yang Xiaotao take a look, isn't this thing going to dig a well? Try it before you talk! ”

"Yes, no matter how much, it's always right to try."

Make up your mind and get on the well drill tomorrow.

The two of them walked out of the office, and when they passed by a workshop, they heard a sound from inside, and walked in to take a look curiously.

In the workshop, there were several people sitting, all talking and laughing on the side.

The sound was not loud, but it was heard far away in the night.

"Sun Guo, if you don't go home so late, you have a meeting here."

Yang Youning walked in with a cold face, I don't know if I have to go to work tomorrow?

The first workshop is really getting more and more unpleasant, the completion rate of the task volume has not improved in recent years, and the progress speed is not as good as the third workshop.

Of course, there are many factors in this, but as the director of a workshop, he has his own responsibility.

If it weren't for Yang Xiaotao to give a workshop a chance by name this time, he wouldn't have bothered to take care of it.

Even so, something went wrong, thanks to Yang Xiaotao's rescue, otherwise this steam engine really wouldn't have worked.

"Director, you're here." Sun Guo hurriedly got up, "It's not Yang Gong who said it, I want to test the sustaining ability of the steam engine, and I want to try it tonight." A few of us are just here watching. ”

Yang Youning came over to look, this should be another steam engine, at this moment the flywheel is still spinning, the workers on the side are guarding the furnace, looking at the pressure gauge next to them, once the value drops, add some coal to it.

If it burns too quickly, lower the valve to control the heat and keep the steam engine running.

"This kid will make people call."

"Don't have so many of you here, leave two of you, and you have to go to work tomorrow."

"Those who stay should wear more clothes, it's cold at night, don't catch a cold."

Liu Huaimin looked at the steam engine, explained a few words to everyone, and thought about how to report this matter to his superiors.

The two left, Sun Guo took the initiative to stay, anyway, he was the director, he didn't have to go down to the workshop, and it was nothing to stay up all night.

As for the other one, Sun Guo left a good relationship.

He is not without selfishness, this steam engine must be useful, and when the time comes, if someone wants to operate it, then it must be a skilled person.

At this point, he still has to take care of his acquaintances.

The next day, Saturday.

In the courtyard, many people did not go to work, and this is also the day of Jia Dongxu's funeral.

Someone was blowing suona and horns at the door early in the morning, and the sound woke up the whole alley.

Yang Xiaotao did not go back to Yangjiazhuang after getting up, but rode to the rolling mill to see if there was any problem with the steam engine running all night.

If there is no problem, install the drilling machine, and then return to Yangjiazhuang with the cement pipe to surprise Gao Yufeng and them.

In a good mood, Yang Xiaotao rode all the way to the rolling mill, put the car away, and walked to a workshop.

At this moment, Sun Guo is sleeping against the table, there are not many people going to work today, and he didn't come early, so leave him space to rest.

The other man was still staring at the steam engine, adjusting the heat at any time, as if it had aroused his interest, and his eyes sparkled.

"Yang Gong, you're here."

hush

Yang Xiaotao walked in, the man stood up and said hello, Yang Xiaotao hurriedly stopped, and pointed to Sun Guo on the side, the man understood, and the two walked to the other side.

"You are?"

"Yang Gong, I'm Li Feng, I stayed to help last night."

"Hello."

Yang Xiaotao didn't know him, it was estimated that Sun Guo left it, and the two of them exchanged polite words, and then they looked at the steam engine.

"Yang Gong, this one ran all night, and it's still spinning."

"Well, stop and don't put coal."

Li Feng nodded.

The fire in the furnace is gradually extinguished, the sound of the boiling boiler is muffled, and the speed of the flywheel is slowing down.

The two waited for a while, and Sun Guo woke up, looked at Yang Xiaotao, and then looked at the steam engine.

"I'll tell him to stop, I'll check it later."

Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth to explain, and Sun Guo nodded, "I'm old, I can't stay up late." ”

"If you used to attack the fortifications, you wouldn't have closed your eyes for three nights."

Sun Guo sighed and got up to move his body.

The three of them waited for a while, the temperature of the steam engine cooled down, and Yang Xiaotao put on his glasses and began to scan to check if there was a problem with the steam engine.

Sun Guo and the others went to the cafeteria to prepare for the hour, leaving Yang Xiaotao to work alone.

The steam engine was scanned, and there were no problems except that the flywheel joints needed to be oiled to prevent wear and tear.

Yang Xiaotao oiled the steam engine, and then went to the side to inspect the parts of the drilling machine.

The main component of the drilling rig is the linkage device, which transfers the mechanical kinetic energy generated by the steam engine to the drill bit.

The drill bit consists of two thick steel plates welded to a steel pipe with a diameter of five centimeters, and the entire drilling hole can be drilled to make a hole with a diameter of 15 centimeters.

There is a thread at the other end of the steel pipe, which can continuously connect the same steel pipe so that it continues to extend downward.

The process is easy to say, but it can be a lot of work to install.

Yang Xiaotao is busy here, and the four-person team of the rolling mill has come to the office one after another.

Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin didn't sleep well last night, especially Liu Huaimin, his eyes were full of red blood this morning, but his spirit was good.

It's like taking a stimulant, obviously physically exhausted, but the spirit is very high.

The two told Xu Yuanshan and Chen Gong about the power of the steam engine.

Now Xu Yuanshan understood, why did he have to test twice last night.

The four of them discussed it and decided not to talk about it for the time being, after all, it was not normal for such a small steam engine to have such a large horsepower, so it was better to actually test it.

So, the four of them discussed going to the workshop to have a look first, and then waited for Yang Xiaotao to get the drilling machine done and inspect it on the spot.

Then the four of them went to a workshop.

At this time, Sun Guo and the others returned to the workshop to help, and the parts were quickly installed one by one.

When a few people came, Yang Xiaotao had already installed the key linkage device on the steam engine and was preparing for the experiment.

"Factory director, secretary."

The three of them hurried up to say hello.

"The drilling machine is installed?"

Yang Youning looked at the drilling machine being installed, stepped forward and turned left and right, and asked.

"Well, the main parts are already in place and about to be tested."

"As for the connecting rods and drill bits, they need to be tried in the field."

"Moreover, the weight of this steam engine is not low, it is best to install and fix it on the car, so that it is convenient to move, and it can also give a certain height, and it is more convenient to drill wells."

Yang Xiaotao was talking about his opinions on the side, and Yang Youning listened carefully and was also thinking about it.

After a while, a truck came to the door of the workshop, and Xu Yuanshan beckoned the three people from the security department to move the steam engine that was tested yesterday out of the car and place it in a workshop.

"Do you want to put it on a truck?"

Chen Gong looked at the truck, and his eyes lit up.

Yang Xiaotao listened to it and thought it was good, the truck was easy to transport, and the height of the carriage was just right, and it could also load steel pipes and drill bits.

But as soon as this idea was proposed, Liu Huaimin shook his head and refused.

"There are a number of trucks in our factory, and there are many tasks."

"Besides, the truck may not go up the mountain to the countryside."

A few people pondered it and felt that this was indeed the case.

Especially in the countryside, there are no roads for cars to run.

"Why don't you use the land to line up for cars?"

Yang Xiaotao finally put forward his opinion.

The ground row car is convenient to move, as long as the cattle and horses are set, the steam engine plus the weight of thousands of pounds of parts, it is not a problem to go to the mountains and the countryside.

Moreover, the floor row car can also be supported with wood to form a stable environment, which can be used as a working platform for a steam engine.

"Xiao Yang's suggestion is good. It's also affordable to use the land to arrange the car, so you can try it. ”

Yang Youning was the first to agree, turned to Xu Yuanshan and said, "You will arrange the logistics." ”

"By the way, contact the ranch and get a mule in the name of the rolling mill."

After Yang Youning finished speaking, he looked at Yang Xiaotao, "We workers also want to support the construction of the farm." ”

Xu Yuanshan came back to his senses and left with a smile.

Yang Xiaotao said gratefully, "Director, this is a great help, thank you." ”

Yang Xiaotao is happy for a reason.

Don't look at the three villages of Yangjiazhuang merged into a farm, and the people of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences are working in it, but they have also given two donkeys to ask their superiors for support in cultivating cattle, horses, and donkeys.

And it's for the other two villages.

As for the Yang family Zhuangzi, there was no replenishment of livestock.

It can be seen that these livestock are scarce.

Now, Yang Youning can ask for mules in the name of the rolling mill, and if he can really come out, then this is definitely good news for Yangjiazhuang.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank you first, the things are ready for you, but you have to come up with real materials, otherwise."

"Factory director, don't worry, I will never give it to you, and I will disgrace the rolling mill."

Yang Youning nodded with a smile and glanced at Liu Huaimin.

The two tacitly agreed, and Chen Gong on the side understood that Yang Xiaotao was still too young, and he was calculated by the two old foxes, and he thanked the two of them for working for others.

alas

Why didn't he have the life to be a fox?

Looking at Yang Xiaotao's happy appearance, Chen Gong shook his head helplessly.

Yang Xiaotao has only one.

This solves the problem of transportation, and the choice of where to experiment becomes a problem.

Several people discussed this issue.

According to Yang Youning's plan, just find a place to dig a hole in the rolling mill and try it, but Yang Xiaotao walked forward and smiled, "Factory director, why don't you go to my house to try." ”
